I've just gone and got myself a new lid, the Arai Signet was 4 years old and it's time for a replacement I think (purchased a Shoei Multitech).

Anyway, looking around, reading up on the SHARP tests (boy, what a minefield!) and other stuff, there really is alot of differing views on lid life.

Personally, I usually stick to three years, so spending around �400 every 3 years is around �0.36 per day. It's not alot really to look after your bonce.

(incidentaly I have a different lid for each bike, MX for dirt riding, Tour-X for the Ten and the new Shoei for the Fizer/Ten)

So, go on, how long do you keep you lid for before you go for a replacement??
